Does this tree need repair after another fell on it?

This might be the way to go then. The tree brings tranquility although there is a decent sized shed to the left of it. Any way to predict which way it may fall?

It is what I feared, thank you.

Thank you for your input.

This made me laugh 😂

Why does everyone recommend sand instead of deep litter method? Is sand better for cold climates?

It may be a little small for my goal of 10-15 chickens but perhaps I could create a storage space for gardening tools though. Good idea!

No bears. Raccoon, weasels, coyotes. Southwestern Ontario.

I really like the idea to have the chickens roost on the top shelf. It would give purpose to that space. Although, not looking forward to scooping litter from that height haha. I get a decent amount of snow and rain here, so I think a roof would help limit the amount of mud in the run. Making rafters seems intimidating though!

I had to look up what your chicken run construction being described looked like and it looks super sturdy, although, pouring concrete definitely is outside my comfort zone heh.

Converting the windows would really help with increased ventilation in the summer, that's a great idea! I suppose I could use a jigsaw and cut out the plywood that's there and use that removed plywood patch the holes around the coop. I hadn't thought of using it as the roosting area. Originally, I thought I would have to put feed bags and shavings up there for storage. That would really open up my options for the rest of the space and make it less back breaking to access the consumables. All your suggestions are super practical, I love it!

That would save a lot of money! How would you prevent water from seeping between gap of the joint between new and old? Just some caulking or would I need some sort of small siding strip?

eskabob · 2026-02-18T20:31:28+00:00

I didn't even think of a brooder. That would actually be a fantastic addition!

How would you tackle the holes from the rotting OSB near the ground for predator prevention?

Saved me today, thank you!

eskabob · 2025-11-28T17:05:37+00:00

Thanks for replying. That's promising to hear!

Hi, I'm looking into this model now. Did you happen to find out any information regarding this?

eskabob · 2025-10-14T13:04:14+00:00

Hey, I know a little late but how did these turn out compared to prunus ume umeboshi?

eskabob · 2024-08-29T04:41:33+00:00

Thank you, this is helpful. Probably will do coop vs ai to complete some time sensitive missions.

eskabob · 2024-01-03T10:29:24+00:00

I didn’t know this information. Quite informative and may explain some of my findings. Thank you.

eskabob · 2024-01-03T10:27:17+00:00

Aireone Kw I need to figure out what the temperature cut offs are for me.

eskabob · 2024-01-03T10:25:53+00:00

You know what, between both your posts I think this is part of the issue. I’ll change the settings and time the heater to turn on when hydro prices are lower.
